Description of CE Program/Activity
 This tutorial is the first in a two-part series that considers the unique needs of early communicators with visual impairment and additional disabilities (including deaf-blindness) when designing Augmentative-Alternative Communication (AAC) Systems. Factors surrounding vocabulary selection and organization, visual and tactile symbol adaptation, and use of multiple systems will be considered in the context of a collaborative, team-based approach to AAC.
